Outside the Lettered City: Cinema, Modernity, and the Public Sphere in Late Colonial India
Dass, Manishita (Lecturer, Lecturer, Royal Holloway, University of London)
Outside the Lettered City traces how middle-class Indians responded to the rise of the cinema as a popular form of mass entertainment in early 20th century India, focusing on their preoccupation with the mass public made visible by the cinema and with the cinema's role as a public sphere and a mass medium of modernity.
